I never thought you should be on the dental side of that hospital. I'm curious why you are waiting so long for the surgery if this tumor is still growing. Are you certain that postponing this until it is convenient is a wise idea and did the dr. discuss that with you? I think you are in good hands. Good luck.
Take care, Eileen
